If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Presented by instructor,  performer, choreographer, DJ and musician Carlos Konig, this social will feature lots of classic salsa music, with an occasional cha cha, by DJ Carlos Konig and other guest DJ's.  That means you'll be hearing some very good dancing music.  There will be dance shows from time to time which will be listed. Held on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of every month.

This is a salsa dance social held in a good size recently renovated dance studio and there are 2 extra studio rooms available when the crowd gets bigger. Music is almost entirely pure classic salsa plus a little cha cha played by Carlos Konig is the DJ and also there are sometimes guest DJs, dancing is  entirely "New York On 2" timing and style, Very casual.  Come as you like.

Held in a brand new studio, the wooden dance floor is "medium speed", so it is suitable for most shoes.  There are two dancing rooms available, plus another one ready to open if it gets crowded, as well as 2 other rooms for relaxing & socializing.  Refreshments are available for reasonable prices along with free snacks such as chips, pretzels & muffins.  

Carlos is well-known to many of us as the smiling salsero with some of the fastest feet you've ever seen.  He is gracious and a true gentleman.  His classes & events are always friendly and the ladies tell me that dancing with him is a very graceful experience.  He invites everyone to come and join him at his social, a place for great dancing and friendly socializing.

The social is being held at Ripley-Grier Studios, 520 8th Avenue (between 36th & 37th Streets), 17th floor, midtown Manhattan, NYC.
